Season starts in the fall and ends in the spring. "Teams will be allowed to play 18 matches from late August until the Saturday before Thanksgiving and up to 10 matches from mid-February until the start of the NCAA Tournament. Specific dates for the postseason will be determined later." ht...

The NCAA just announced that the DI Men's soccer season will be split between the fall and the spring starting in 2027-28, with up to 18 matches in the fall and up to 10 matches in the spring. This would limit the ability of lacrosse and soccer to share a stadium.

Sorry Stu, but living out of state now assume I am a No unless I respond otherwise. I do hope to get to one someday as they sound like a great way to further build on the relationships started on this board, while also providing the opportunity to chat with the oft-elusive athletic department staff....

Could they split basketball like they did football, into I-A (BCS) and I-AA (FCS)?

If I figure it right, all teams that were 13 seeds (like Hofstra) would now be 14 seeds under the new format, playing a 3 seed instead of a 4 seed

Nothing against Mike.DePaoli, but with his experience Tom Parrotta should have been the Associate Head Coach of this team. Wish him much success at QU.

I assume you mean James Metzger, since Joe Margiotta passed away over 17 years ago.
Interesting to read about all of his contributions to the Long Island lacrosse community.

Thanks Polito and PbDutch for your insights. You made me feel better!

In 5 seasons as HC, Speedy has 4 20-win seasons, an NIT appearance (winning the 1st round game), a CAA regular season title, and a CAA Championship and NCAA tournament appearance, staying with Alabama for 35 minutes. Does he leave Hofstra for greener pastures, and if so, when? It was at about this p...

Assuming they expand it evenly (ha), you would have the following contested in the opening round: all 4 16-seeds 2 of the 15-seeds all 4 11-seeds 2 of the 10-seeds So for the mid majors, teams that should be 14, 15 and 16 seeds will be battling it out in what is essentially a play-in . What this wil...

Why didn't we play on campus this weekend?

If I was still living on LI I would be there. Weeknights are practically impossible for me.

They definitely put up a fight for longer than I expected against a bigger, faster, more talented team. Not going to nitpick about individual performances. We looked like the JV squad playing the Varsity and we held our own for most of the game. Great job and a great season! One thing I would like t...

Alright Hofstra, UNCW did their part in the NIT. You're on deck. Also, when UNCW went to the NCAA tournament against Duke we opened up Trask free to the public to watch the game on the jumbotron. Free pizza for the students with cheerleaders and band who didn't travel. The place was packed and I to...

Broadcast team for our game is Phillies PBPer Tom McCarthy, Candace Parker and Dan Bonner.

Alabama’s second leading scorer Aden Holloway was arrested this morning in Tuscaloosa. Not sure if it will impact his game status but worth watching. https://x.com/_nickkelly/status/2033563494461616270?s=46 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Full story from ESPN: https://www.espn.com/mens-college-b...

Hofstra alumnus Jon Cooper has done pretty well in that building for the past 13 years. Hopefully some of that Hofstra mojo is there for us!

Bama it is! AARON ESTRADA REVENGE GAME! Tampa much better than west coast. No 12/13s in Philly. Couldn't have done much better in that case for a site Edit: The 13s were sent to San Diego, Portland, OKC and Tampa. Best possible travel in that case. I was only joking!! But spoke it into existence. 😆...

Great to hear, but we can have all the "next season" talk after this season is over. We still have unfinished business!
